Server-wide /shouts

Actually we have a similar but different system for that. The only promblem is that mostly Japanese use it.

Its called the search comment If u need something u can always write it in the search comment and ppl can look for you. Ppl are just too lazy to search.

That's not comparable at all. People are asking for another, wider chat channel, not a passive search system.

^This quoted for truth


Some people are too lazy to set comments so they want to shout to the server for setting something up. Then again some people are just too lazy to read and disregard any /seacom you may have set. Maybe they don't understand what /seacom is and how to /search with it? I don't know.

What I do know is...

I want to see shouts while I am in the city, not while I'm doing some random event. That's why I go to the city in between events and adjust my /seacom as needed.

Howdy!

As mentioned previously, the development team has been hard at work creating a new mode of chat that will allow players to be heard across all the areas within your current nation! I bring with me today a sample of what they're currently testing and planning to implement in the upcoming version update! I give you…the “Yell” feature!






*For the initial settings, the text color is the same as shout

The yell feature will start with support in Jeuno so that we can monitor the effects it has on server lag. After examining the situation for a bit (and assuming no problems arise), we'll expand the yell feature to cover area-wide communications within San d'Oria, Bastok and Windurst.

Now you'll be able to yell for parties while keeping your chocobo fed, expanding your Gobbiebag, or just listing up your bone chips on the Auction House!

Interesting concept. World chat log tab to stop it interfering with normal chats, that you could be looked at via a menu. Additional chat command worldchat to add to the menu chat log could see that working and not interfering with the current location chat screen.

that looks like the UI to change the color at the bottom i think it works just like /shout but it will be /yell

I got that and the bit about it being regional based to start with, I am expanding it a bit further to remove the filter from the current chat screen and make it like a news feed that covers the world server that people can check out as and when they need to.

Where's the dislike button?

So now I have to leave Jeuno to get away from people shouting dumb crap in port. Awesome.

You guys are aware it possible to turn off shouts right? So why would it be any different with Yell, if you don't like it just disable it lol.
